The fall season is finally here, and with it comes the crisp autumn air and the beautiful fall foliage.

As the weather starts to cool down, it’s time to start thinking about warm and cozy treats to help keep you comfortable through the colder months. If you’re looking for all-natural ways to satisfy your cravings, there are plenty of delicious autumn treats to choose from.

Whether you’re in the mood for something sweet or savory, here are some all-natural fall treats that are sure to keep you warm and cozy this season.

Pumpkin Spice Latte

Nothing screams fall more than a pumpkin spice latte! Rather than buying an overpriced drink from your local coffee shop, why not make your own all-natural version at home? Start by brewing a strong pot of coffee and adding 1-2 tablespoons of pumpkin puree, a dash of cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice, a splash of vanilla extract, and a drizzle of honey to sweeten. Top with steamed milk of your choice and enjoy.

Apple Cider

Apple cider is a classic fall beverage that never gets old. To make an all-natural version, start by heating up some apple cider on the stove. Add in a cinnamon stick, a few cloves, and a dash of nutmeg for some extra flavor.

Simmer for about 20-25 minutes to allow the spices to infuse into the cider. Serve warm and enjoy.

Pumpkin Seeds

When you carve your pumpkin this fall, don’t throw away the seeds – they make for a healthy and tasty snack! Rinse the seeds in a colander to remove any excess pulp and dry them off with a paper towel.

Spread the seeds out on a baking tray and roast at 350 degrees for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Season with salt or spices of your choice – cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice are all great options – and enjoy as a snack or as a topping for oatmeal or yogurt.

Caramel Apples

Caramel apples are another classic fall treat that can be made all-natural with just a few simple ingredients. Start by melting some caramel candies in a double boiler.

While the caramel is melting, wash and dry your apples and insert wooden sticks into the tops. Once the caramel has melted, dip the apples into the caramel to coat, letting any excess drip off. Place the coated apples onto a greased baking sheet and let them cool before serving.

For an extra twist, you can also roll the caramel-coated apples in chopped nuts or other toppings of your choice.

Butternut Squash Soup

Butternut squash soup is a warm and hearty meal that’s perfect for chilly fall days. Start by roasting a butternut squash in the oven until it’s soft and tender.

In a separate pot, sauté some onions and garlic in olive oil until they’re fragrant. Add the roasted butternut squash to the pot, along with some vegetable stock and a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg. Blend the mixture until smooth and serve hot with a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream on top.

Spiced Nuts

Roasted and spiced nuts make for a crunchy, satisfying snack that’s perfect for munching on during fall activities like apple picking and pumpkin patch visits.

Start by roasting your nuts of choice – almonds, walnuts, and pecans are all great options – at 350 degrees for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. In a separate bowl, mix together some spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice work well – with some honey and a pinch of salt. Toss the roasted nuts in the spice mixture until fully coated and enjoy!.

Pumpkin Bread

Pumpkin bread is a fall staple that can be made all-natural with just a few simple ingredients. Start by mixing together some flour, baking powder, salt, and spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice are all great options – in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, mix together some pumpkin puree, eggs, honey, and coconut oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Hot Cocoa

Hot cocoa is the ultimate comfort drink for chilly fall evenings. To make an all-natural version, start by heating up some milk – almond or coconut milk work well if you’re looking for a dairy-free option.

Add in some unsweetened cocoa powder, a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg, and a drizzle of honey to sweeten. Top with whipped cream or marshmallows and enjoy!.

Roasted Vegetables

Roasted vegetables are a healthy and satisfying side dish that’s perfect for fall dinners.

Start by chopping up your favorite fall vegetables – butternut squash, Brussels sprouts, and sweet potatoes are all great options – and toss them in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast the vegetables in the oven at 400 degrees for about 20-25 minutes, or until they’re tender and caramelized. Serve hot and enjoy!.

Apple Pie

Apple pie is a classic fall dessert that’s perfect for holidays like Thanksgiving. To make an all-natural version, start by cutting up some apples – Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well – and tossing them with some cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.

In a separate bowl, mix together some flour, sugar, and butter to make the crust. Place the apples into the crust, cover with another layer of crust, and bake in the oven at 375 degrees for about 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
